‘The Crash’ Victim Dominic Russo
Sister Furious Over Mackenzie’s Netflix Fame
Published
Dominic Russo‘s sister Christine is ripping her brother’s murderer, Mackenzie Shirilla … and she’s taking issue with the fame, notoriety, and money flowing Mackenzie’s way on the heels of a popular Netflix documentary.
Christine joined us on “TMZ Live” Thursday, and we asked her about “The Crash” … a Netflix production about Mackenzie’s double murder case following the fatal car crash that killed Dominic and his friend, Davion Flanagan.
Dominic’s sister says she’s “furious” her brother’s “cold-blooded evil killer” is getting a bunch of attention and, in some instances, support … Christine says Mackenzie is a narcissist, and this is exactly what she craves.
Christine claims inmates at the Ohio prison where Mackenzie is locked up have told her Mackenzie is living lavishly behind bars … just listen to what Christine says Mackenzie’s been buying in the clink … sounds like folks are putting a lot of money on her books.
Dominic’s sister is turning her pain and fury into a push for change … she’s trying to get laws modified to make it tougher for violent convicts to profit off their crimes … and she’s putting the call out to lawmakers in Ohio to get on board.
Christine says she only saw an early version of “The Crash” … she wasn’t a fan … and says there’s a whole lot that’s been left out of the Netflix doc.
One example is an exchange between Dominic and Mackenzie’s mothers that is brought up towards the end of the film … Christine says it’s missing important background and context, and fills us in.
In addition to her legislative push, Christine started a podcast, “The Big Sister: Unhinged,” so she could have a platform to defend her brother and her family from online trolls, victim shamers, and Mackenzie supporters.
